Man Forces Self On Snake, Viewers Cry Foul Ahead Of Discovery's 'Eaten Alive'

A petition demanding Discovery Channel cancel its dining-on-a-naturalist anaconda special, Eaten Alive blew past its goal of 25,000 signatures at 5:49 ET this morning, and is well on its way to its new goal of 35,000 — just six days after its launch on Change.org. Discovery is not commenting on the petition, and has yet to issue information about the program it sneak-peeked during Nik Wallenda’s Chicago high-wire walk.

A Man Volunteered To Be 'Eaten Alive' By An Anaconda: Discovery, In Need Of A Rebound, Is Going to Air It

This year, Discovery will air a special that consists of a man being eaten alive by an anaconda and making it back out again, all without killing the snake or himself.

And it’s not even during fall sweeps. Discovery is airing the special, “Eaten Alive,” on Dec. 7.

Paul Rosolie, the guy getting eaten, is a naturalist and wildlife filmmaker who runs a company called Tamandua Expeditions that funds rainforest conservation through tourism. The stunt has already been filmed and edited. Spoiler alert: Rosolie lived to tell the tale. In fact, he’s tweeting about it. Rosolie accomplished the feat wearing a “custom-built snake-proof suit,” as Discovery put it, covering himself in pig’s blood to make himself appetizing.
